Bayern Munich and England striker Harry Kane looks set to extend his contract with the Munich club despite interest from Barcelona. This is reported by insider sources. According to the source, the Spanish champion contacted the representatives of the 32-year-old forward to find out about his situation and the possibility of a potential transfer. However, the football player's entourage informed the Catalans that Kane is happy in Bavaria and does not plan to change the club. The Englishman's current deal runs until the summer of 2027, and after the World Cup, the sides are expected to step up talks over a new long-term contract. At the same time, the football player himself had the opportunity to use the early departure clause at the beginning of the year, but decided not to do so. Kane had another outstanding year last season with 61 goals and seven assists in 51 appearances in all competitions. After moving from Tottenham in the summer of 2023, the Englishman has already scored 146 goals for Bayern and twice became the champion of Germany. The forward is currently in the England national team for the 2026 World Cup. He has already scored three goals at the tournament, and the closest opponent of Thomas Tuchel's team in the 1/16 finals will be the DR Congo national team.
